Welcome to Ventura College
Welcome to our new Schedule of Classes. For the past year, we have been adding information pages in
Spanish to our traditional Schedule of Classes. We are now offering a publication that fully integrates the
information in both languages we feel that every student, whether new or returning, needs to have to make
their educational decisions. We have reorganized the Schedule, making the class listings more accessible; added
graphics that we hope will make it more “user-friendly”; and made numerous other changes.
Start 2004 on the right note – plan for your future and make those New Year’s resolutions reality. We can help you
accomplish those academic, personal, and professional goals. Ventura College is one of Ventura County’s greatest resources and
a true bargain! We are here to help you advance your job skills, learn another language, embark on a whole new career, work
on your associate’s degree or certificate of completion, or prepare to transfer for your four-year degree.
Ventura College can fit into your schedule. We are a community leader in distance learning courses, making classes available
to fit your needs, and we offer classes during the day and evenings and in numerous locations, including our East Campus in
Santa Paula, the Ventura main campus and several local high schools. Learn more about Ventura College at
www.venturacollege.edu!
On behalf of the administration, faculty and staff of Ventura College, I invite you to join us this spring and start on the
path to your personal and professional success!

PREQUISITES REQUIRED FOR MATH, ENGLISH AND MICROBIOLOGY
NOTICE! – PLEASE READ
Please check page 37 for the English course prerequisites, page 47 for the math prerequisites, and
page 50 for the microbiology prerequisites. If you have any questions, please speak with a counselor.
Prerequisite Requirement
The course prerequisites specify the preparation required to successfully complete a particular course. For those
students taking English and/or math courses and/or microbiology, the completion of the required prerequisites
taken at Oxnard, Moorpark or Ventura College will be verified by computer before students are allowed to
complete registration. If you enroll prior to receiving the grade in a prerequisite course, enrollment is contingent
on the final grade. For students who have met the prerequisites at other institutions, documentation
(such as a high school and/or college transcript) must be reviewed prior to registration. Without this
documentation, students will not be allowed to register. Do not delay: request copies of official transcripts
be sent immediately to Assessment Specialist, Guthrie Hall, 4667 Telegraph Road, Ventura, CA 93003, phone (805)
654-6402.
Petition to Challenge
Students who believe they have met the prerequisite in ways other than by completing an equivalent course (for
example, private instruction or on the job training) may file a "Petition to Challenge." The challenge form outlines
the specific reasons students may give for challenging a prerequisite or corequisite and is available from the
Counseling Office in the Administration Building. The challenge process must be completed prior to the end
of late registration. Students are encouraged to submit a prerequisite challenge seven working days
prior to the first day of class.
New Students
New students may need to meet with a Ventura College counselor prior to registration to avoid registration
delays. Call the Counseling Office at (805) 654-6448 for more information or to schedule an appointment.

recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation and
the U.S. Department of Education.
Adding a Closed Class
Adding a closed class will always require written permission from the

www.venturacollege.edu and clicking on "Student Central."
Attendance and Absence
All students are expected to attend the first meeting of class, and to
attend classes regularly thereafter. The instructor may drop students
who do not attend the first class meeting, and may recommend that
students be dropped when absence from the class exceeds 1/9th
(one-ninth) of the total class contact hours for the session. Students
may also be dropped fro having missed necessary safety instruction
when such instruction is routinely given. Instructor-initiated drops
may result in the assignment of a grade of "W" in accordance with
the college withdrawal policy.
Auditing a Class
Students may petition to audit a maximum of one 3 unit class per
semester or Summer session. The petition to audit a class is
available at the Admissions & Records Office. It must be approved
and signed by the instructor, and returned to the Admissions &
Records Office during the last two days of the program adjustment

or (805) 642-7000.
Class Repeat Policy
Courses can only be taken one time unless otherwise noted in the
Ventura Collge Catalog and Schedule of Classes. Students may
petition only once to repeat courses to improve grades of "D," "F" or
"NC." Courses in which a grade of "C," "CR" or better were received
may not be repeated unless specifically authorized by the Title V of
the California Administrative Code.
Credit by Exam
To apply for Credit by Exam students must make an appointment
with a counselor. Students must be currently enrolled in at least one
credit course at the college, must have completed at least 12 units in
residence in the district, must be in good academic standing, and
must have submitted transcripts from all other colleges attended.
They must not have previously received a grade in the course being
petitioned, or completed courses in more advanced subject matter,
and must not be participating in the same course as an auditor.
Students should not enroll in the course they are attempting to
challenge. Units earned through Credit by Exam are clearly identified
on their transcript with a grade of CRE (NC if not passed), and are
subject to the acceptance policies of each individual college or
university. There may be limitations on the use of such units for
establishing eligibility for athletics, financial aid, veteran's benefits
and other programs. Some courses may not be challenged. Consult
the Office of Student Development for a list of excluded courses.
Petitions must be on file with the administering instructor by Friday of
the tenth week of the semester, and exam must be administered
prior to the last day of the semester.
Credit/No Credit Grading Option
Students may choose the credit/no credit (CR/NC) grading option in
courses for which letter grades are assigned. Students may elect by
no later than 30% of the length of the class to request, or rescind a
request for the credit/no credit option. Students will receive a grade
of CR which denotes work equivalent to a letter grade of C or better.
A maximum of 20 units of CR may be applied to an AA or AS degree
or a Certificate of Achievement. Units earned on a credit/no credit
basis shall not be used to calculate grade point averages, but they
shall be considered in probation and dismissal policies. Other
colleges and universities may restrict the acceptance of courses
taken on a CR/NC basis, especially in satisfaction of major or
general education requirements. Students should consult a
counselor before choosing the credit/no credit option.
Dropping a Class or Withdrawing
(Always Confirm Your Drops by Reviewing Your Class Schedule)
•Drop by WEB: Log onto www.venturacollege.edu, click on the
"Student Central" logo, then on WebSTAR. •Drop by STAR: Drop a
class using STAR during its hours of availability. It is your responsibility
to make sure the class is dropped. •Drop IN-PERSON: at
the Admissions & Records Office during regular business hours.
Fill out the Drop form. Sign it. Turn it in for processing. You will be
given a receipt. Keep your receipt. The receipt is your proof that
the class was officially dropped. •Drop by MAIL: send the
Admissions & Records Office a letter indicating which class(es)
you want to drop. Include your social security number and
signature. The postmark on the envelope will be your official drop
date. If you want a receipt, please indicate that in your letter.
EAC Interim Statement
Class Schedule in Alternate Formats for Students with Disabilities:
The Ventura College Educational Assistance Center recognizes the
need to provide the class schedule in formats that are usable by
individuals with disabilities. Currently, the schedule is available in
print format and online at http://www.vcccd.net/si/scheds.htm.
With assistive technology that is available on campus, and which
many individuals also have for use at home, these formats already
provide access for individuals with a number of disabilities. In
addition, the EAC will prepare a large print copy of the schedule. The
primary difficulty is faced by those relying on speech output or
Braille for accessing information. This requires that the information
be formatted online and in e-text in a manner that makes sense
when using those modes of access. There are technical difficulties
at the present time which prevent putting the Schedule into a format
which could easily be converted to Braille. The same holds true for
conversion to e-text for use in text-to-speech. In that case, the issue
is having it "make sense" when presented verbally without benefit of
seeing the text. The EAC and the DSPS programs at Oxnard and
Moorpark Colleges, together with the District Information Technology
Office, will be working to find a common solution to this District-wide
problem. In the interim, someone requiring the Schedule in formats
other than large print, standard print, or the current online version,
should contact the EAC. The staff of the EAC will work with these
individuals to ensure that their needs for access to schedule
information are met in a timely, mutually determined manner that will
no doubt vary from person-to-person. This interim policy will be
revised when a permanent resolution to this issue is attained.

Harassment / Discrimination, Complaint
Procedure
Members of a college community--students, faculty, administrators,
staff and visitors--must be able to study and work in an atmosphere
of mutual respect and trust. Ventura County Community
College District is actively committed to creating and maintaining
an environment which respects the dignity of individuals and
groups. The goal of Ventura County Community College District is
to be sensitive to the needs of students, staff and those who interact
with the college community, while preserving the rights of those
against whom allegations have been made. Employees or students
of the District who feel that they have been harassed or discriminated
against based on race, color, national or ethnic origin, age,
gender, religion, sexual orientation, veteran status, marital status or
physical or mental disability have the right to file a complaint. The
procedures outlined govern the process for all discrimination complaints
filed by employees or students, including sexual harassment.
Complaints may be filed student against student, student
against employee, employee against student, employee against
employee, visitor against employee, employee against visitor, etc.
Complaints must be filed with the District within one year of the
alleged harassment or discrimination or within one year of the date
on which the Complainant knew or should have known of the facts
of the alleged incident. District employees involved in any aspect
of investigating or resolving a complaint of harassment or discrimination
will have received training from a qualified source in advance
of their service. Non-retaliation for filing--no individual will
suffer retaliation as a result of filing a claim or being a witness in
regard to harassment/discrimination allegations. Persons engaging

INFORMAL PROCESS
An individual who has reason to believe that he or she has been a
victim of harassment or discrimination based on race, color, national
or ethnic origin, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation,
marital status, veteran status or physical or mental disability may
resolve the matter through an informal process under this procedure.
Participation in the informal process is optional and not a
prerequisite to filing a formal complaint.
1.
A person who believes that he or she has personally suffered
harassment or discrimination should contact the appropriate
Intake Facilitator at their location to directly discuss his or her
concerns.
2.
The Intake Facilitator may inform the Respondent of the possible
complaint and shall meet with the Complainant to:
a. understand the nature of the concern;
b. give to Complainant a copy of the District’s Sexual Harassment
Policy brochure and this “Complaint Procedure for Harassment/
Discrimination” document;
c. inform Complainant of his or her rights under this complaint
procedure;
d. assist the Complainant in any way advisable.
3.
If the Complainant and the Respondent agree to a proposed
resolution, the resolution shall be implemented and the informal
process shall be concluded. At any time during the informal
process, the Complainant may initiate a formal complaint.
4.
The Intake Facilitator shall keep a written log of discussions
and a record of the resolution. This information shall become
part of the official investigation file if the Complainant initiates a
formal complaint. If the parties reach a tentative agreement
upon resolution of the complaint, a letter summarizing the resolution
shall be sent to the Complainant and the Respondent. A
copy of this letter shall be sent to Human Resources for approval.
5.
Once a complaint is put in writing and signed by the Complainant,
the Complaint is considered to be formal and the formal
complaint procedures should be followed.
INFORMAL PROCESS
1.
A person who alleges that he or she has personally suffered
harassment or discrimination based on race, color, national or
ethnic origin, age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, veteran
status, marital status, or physical or mental disability shall complete
and sign the District's Harassment/Discrimination Complaint
Form within one year of the alleged incident or within one
year of the date on which the Complainant knew or should have
known of the facts of the harassment or discrimination incident.
2.
On the complaint form, the Complainant shall describe in detail
such alleged harassment or discrimination and the action the
Complainant requests to resolve the matter. All written complaints
shall be signed and dated by the Complainant, and shall
contain at least the name(s) of the individual(s) involved, the
date(s) of the event(s) at issue and detailed description of the
actions constituting the alleged harassment or discrimination.

POLICIES & INFORMATION POLICIES & INFORMATION
3.
The Intake Facilitator will review the complaint to determine
whether it describes the kind of harassment or discrimination
which is prohibited under these procedures and whether the
complaint sufficiently describes the facts of the alleged misconduct.
If the complaint does not describe the kind of prohibited
conduct the District investigates under the procedures, the
Complainant will be notified and will be referred to the appropriate
process. If the complaint does not sufficiently describe the
facts giving rise to the complaint so that a determination can be
made regarding whether the alleged misconduct is covered
under these procedures, the complaint will be returned and the
Complainant will be invited to submit an amended complaint
providing enough factual detail to allow the above determination
to be made.
4. After a proper complaint is received, the Intake Facilitator shall
investigate the charges as stated in the complaint. The Intake
Facilitator shall send a copy of the complaint to the Responsible
District Officer, who, after consultation with the Vice Chancellor
of Human Resources and the District Chancellor, shall
send a copy to the State Chancellor of the California Community
College System. A summary of the complaint and procedures
shall also be sent to the Respondent. A copy of the
complaint will be maintained in the Office of Human Resources
at the District Service Office.
5.
The Intake Facilitator shall meet with the Complainant to review
the nature of the complaint and identify the scope and the
nature of the investigation. If the Complainant fails to meet with
the Intake Facilitator within a reasonable time (usually 10
working days), the Intake Facilitator will continue the
investigation to the best of his/her abilities based on the written
formal complaint. After meeting with the Complainant, the
Intake Facilitator shall give the Respondent an opportunity to
meet with him/her to receive the Respondent’s answer to the
complaint and to review with Respondent the scope and nature
of the investigation. Complainant and Respondent may inform
the Intake Facilitator of witnesses to contact and may present
documents in support of their positions.
6. Prior to completing the investigation, the Intake Facilitator shall
meet again with the Complainant and the Respondent
separately, to give an overview of the steps taken during the
investigation, and to ask Complainant and Respondent for the
names of any other individuals the Intake Facilitator might
speak with to request any additional information.
7.
The Responsible District Officer shall determine whether harassment
or discrimination did or did not occur with respect to
each allegation in the complaint. The findings shall take into
consideration the severity of the conduct, the pervasiveness of
the conduct, the pertinent background, and other relevant District
policies. If disciplinary action is recommended, appropriate
contractual due process and statutory processes will be invoked.
If the Responsible District Officer finds there is no evidence
to sustain the allegation, the record shall be kept confidential,
except to the extent that disclosure may be required by
law. The records will be destroyed to the extent the law allows.
After completion of the investigation, the Intake Facilitator shall
meet with the Responsible District Officer who shall be responsible
for reviewing the Intake Facilitator’s report, making factual
determinations, reaching a conclusion regarding the charges,
and recommending appropriate action, if any.

POLICIES & INFORMATION POLICIES & INFORMATION
Student Right-to-Know (SRTK) Disclosure
In compliance with the federal Student-Right-to-Know law (SRTK),
it is the policy of the Ventura County Community College District
and Ventura College to make available its completion and transfer
rates to all current and prospective students. Beginning in Fall
1996, a group of all certificate-, degree-, and transfer-seeking first-
time, full-time students were tracked over a three-year period. (As
a result, approx. 3% of all community college students statewide
were included in the 1996 study.) The completion and transfer
rates are listed below, along with a brief description of how these
rates are defined. These rates do not represent the success rates
of the entire student population at Ventura College, nor do they
account for student outcomes occurring after this three-year tracking
period. The rates below exclude part-time students, continuing
students, students attending Ventura College to obtain or upgrade
job skills, improve basic skills, maintain licenses, working toward
high school credits, pursuing lifelong learning, etc. The rates below
do not include any students who took longer than 2 years to complete
their academic goal. The “transfer rate” does not include any
students who first completed a degree or certificate or became
“transferred prepared” prior to transferring. The “completion rate”
results for the SRTK study described above was 39.5% for VC. The
completion rate is the percent of students from the group studied
who attained a certificate or degree or became “transferred prepared”
during a three year period from Fall 1996 to Spring 1999.
Transfer-prepared was defined by the study as having completed
56 transferable units with a minimum GPA of 2.0. The transfer rate
result for the SRTK study of Ventura College from the 1998 cohort
data was 27.2%. Caution: the transfer rate does not count students
who attained a certificate or degree prior to transferring to another
post-secondary institution such as UC or CSU. General information
about SRTK is available to the public through the Chancellor’s Office
of the California Community College System Web site: http://
srtk.cccco.edu/683/98index.htm.

General Education Notes
The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) is a general education program which community college transfer students
can use to fulfill lower division general education/breadth requirements for either the California State University (CSU) or the University of California
(UC) system without the need, after transfer, to take additional lower division general education courses.
CAVEAT — These courses and requirements are subject to change. Students should consult a counselor or appropriate Web sites to receive the
most current transfer information.
ADMISSION -- Upper division or advanced standing admission criteria (for those students who were ineligible to attend CSU or UC as high school
graduates) are based on three components: 1) Units -- a minimum number of transferable semester units (56 for most CSUs; 60 for SDSU & 60
for all CSUs by Fall '05; 60 for UC; maximum 70 for both); 2) Scholarship -- a minimum cumulative GPA in all transferable coursework (2.0 for CSU;
2.4 for UC; higher for non-California residents); and 3) Subject area requirements (i.e. a-g requirements and the ways in which students satisfy
these requirements differ between CSU and UC). These admission criteria specify only minimum standards. CSU and/or UC may apply more rigorous
standards as enrollment demand changes. All potential transfer students are expected to read the CSU and UC publications for transfers
available in the Ventura College Counseling Office and the Transfer Center.
SELECTION CRITERIA FOR UC -- When the number of applicants for some campuses and some majors exceeds the number of spaces available,
campuses use standards which are more demanding than the minimum admissions requirements to select students. These selection criteria identify
those students who have demonstrated the capacity for high academic achievement. The selection criteria are subject to change by campus, school
or college, major and/or term.
Applicants must complete both the necessary lower division mathematics and English composition requirements with grades of C or better
for most campuses by the end of the spring semester prior to transfer in the fall. Some campuses require the completion of the English and
mathematics requirements by the end of the fall semester prior to transfer in the following fall. Also, some campuses require that the 60-unit minimum
and the four-course pattern (with grades of C or better) be completed by the end of the spring semester prior to transfer in the fall.
All potential transfers are expected to peruse the UC publications "Answers for Transfers" and "Introducing the University" which are published
annually for the forthcoming academic year. These are available in the Ventura College Counseling Office and the Transfer Center.
